Someone Named Gucci Mane Got an Ice Cream Cone Tattooed on His Face

· I have literally never heard of Gucci Mane -- this is Movieline, not Du Jour-Rapper-line -- but upon being released from a mental health facility he got a tattoo of an ice cream cone on his face. Cured! Anyway, this needed to be passed along, so here you go. Click ahead to see Gucci's three new scoops and stick around for more Buzz Break.

· Here's one way to impress your boss. Writer/director Richard Levine based Eddie Izzard's character in the excruciating Every Day on Glee creator Ryan Murphy. (Levine worked for Murphy on Nip/Tuck.) Was Levine's former boss happy with being portrayed as a crass and desperate producer? "I gave it to him and waited anxiously, and after a few days he told me he read it, and that he really liked it," Levine told the Times. "What had been gnawing at him is that he felt the script, which was obviously based on my life, revealed that I had contempt for my job. I really explained to him that at that point fiction had taken over from fact. Our relationship was tender for a bit until he trusted that I didn't look down on the job. I truly see Ryan as a mentor, and without his support on Nip/Tuck I would have never had the courage to direct a film." Shorter answer: He wasn't happy. [NYT]

· Good news for anyone who loves Kiss Kiss Bang Bang: Shane Black -- the beefy action scribe responsible for Lethal Weapon and The Long Kiss Goodnight -- will direct an adaptation of the Japanese manga series Death Note. [Deadline]

· Chet Hanks (Chet Haze) speaks! "[My parents, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson] do know about [my rap career] and they share my excitement. And they're also very supportive, which is something I appreciate. It goes without saying that the support of my parents is something that I will never take for granted and I am very thankful for."

    Will Chet Haze have to tattoo a pie on his face for one-upsmanship street cred?
    Or will it be a box of chocolates, to showcase his roots?

  • renner says:

    Really."Someone named Gucci Mane".I don't even listen to hip-hop, but I know how famous he is.You've just proven how truly square you are.

  • bort says:

    If you don't profess to know anything about rappers (who have been around for 5 years) then why do you feel the need to include them in a blog post that covers movies when 100's of other blogs have already dissected this story a million times. Keep your buzz-worthy news topics to things you understand so you don't look ignorant next time something comes up about successful rappers. "Someone Named Lil' Wayne Went to Prison"

  • Christopher Rosen says:

    But I know who Lil' Wayne is.

  • Christopher Rosen says:

    Success!

  • Brenda says:

    Never heard of him....... now when he grows up what will he do?

  • natman says:

    The boys in prison will love this guy. They will be wanting to lick his face. You may be wondering, no he is not in prison. YET! It is only a matter of time before he will be dong time! What an idiot.

  • gator says:

    Why do you even report on these thugs? They are killing the black race on by one! The white folks are damn tired of paying for stupid is as stupid does!

  • eww702 says:

    he is god awful UGLY

  • eww702 says:

    there are more WHITES who get food/money assistance than blacks so what exactly do you mean charley boy?

  • Ken says:

    If one race comprises 15 % of the population but makes up 68% of the welfare roles, that is a clear picture. In terms of usage of welfare, food stamps, public assistance, it goes like this but the actual numbers vary from state to state.
    Highest to Lowest -
    Blacks
    Hispanics
    Whites
    Asians
    So where do you get your info?

  • me says:

    What an idiot...that is the worst tat I have even seen...leave it to the blacks

  • Bob says:

    Alcohol is a powerful drug but, it makes tatoos alot sillier!

  • DW says:

    It's fascinating how one post about an idiot who got a tattoo on his face becomes a racial issue about how many Blacks are on welfare or that Black people are the only ones who get tattoos on their face (BTW I would check those stats again kind sir--your mistaken). I think both people who made those comments need to check their stats again because neither are exclusive to Black people. I frankly wish bloggers would stop posting shit that allows the racist to rear their ugly heads. Leave it to the simple minded to make comments on his race.
    Now back on topic...This is simply something that one individual decided to do it has nothing to do with him being a rapper, a thug, or Black. Majority rappers don't have face tatts. Now whether you agree on what he did or not is your choice. You don't have to walk around with that on your face, you didn't pay for it, hell you don't even have to look at his face if you so choose not to so why should you care?

  • valerie says:

    what a stupid fools he is. when he gets old that ice cream cone will look like a prune .

  • LaTonya says:

    Very well said!!

  • Cynthia says:

    He is a complete idiot....

  • JustMe says:

    @Ken...you need to re-check your stats, because it is as follows:
    Highest to lowest: Hispanics, Whites, Blacks, Asians!

  • JustMe says:

    @ME..."leave it to the blacks"? I bet you luv all the tats on nasty a$$ jesse james, and the even nastier, butt ugly michelle mcgee!

  • bk says:

    I see blacks, whites and other races withe tattoes on there faces this is not just a black thing. To second what was said African-Americans are not the highest race that get public assistance hispanics are then white american GET IT RIGHT.

  • Marie says:

    Who gives a damn I have my own problems he can tattoo anything on his body it belongs to him an only him!!

  • talia says:

    The bottom line is a talented rapper who tatoos an ice cream cone on his face is an ignorrant LOSER! And" just me", if r not a racist noone is! Jesse James or even ms trailor trash Mcgee would NOT add an ice cream cone to the face...that is the wierdest MOST femine, child-like thing EVER displayed and check r stats about goverment assistant, r probably on it. SOUNDS LIKE IT!!!!!

  • arleen says:

    Ron White said it perfectly:
    "YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!!"

  • ec says:

    typical thug rapper. wonder how much welfare money he paid to make his ugly face even uglier

  • aseyeseeit says:

    HAHAHAHAHA What a f@#king retard! Getting a tattoo on that tumor between his shoulders! His parents must be proud!
